The Titanic Disaster Hearings: The Official Transcripts of the 1912 Senate Investigation

Used by James Cameron in the making of his film Titanic, the moving testimony of surviving crew and passengers of the doomed vessel is recreated in this dramatic, multicast recording. Merely one day after the Titanic survivors arrived in New York City, a U.S. Senate committee began investigation into the wreck of the great "unsinkable" ship. The official transcripts of the investigation include on-duty lookout Frederick Fleet's admission that the disaster may have been avoided.
